To find this so fucking offensive?

[KorsILoveMichael]

Not sure if I'm overreacting.

A semi famous social media person uploaded a photo to there Instagram of them with a sellotape wrapped around their face up to their nose to resemble tubes. Making fun of the film Fault in our Stars, a film about a girl with cancer.

I said I found it disgusting to be told I shouldn't be offended because

"It's a fucking film! She didn't really have cancer! Go to bed you fucking noodle!"

Seriously aibu?

Fair do's.

I agree with LimeFizz

Under circumstances like this MNHQ ought to be able to tell us that they have banned the poster and also tell us who they usually post as and that that name is banned as well.

I imagine 'they' (as in their account) have been banned, or will be in the near future.

Missing the point a bit but I love your posts Derek! Other poster sounds veerry odd indeed.

I agree that the post by the 'celeb' was in very poor taste, film or no film that's not the sort of thing to be making fun of.

However, to mock somebody because their partner left them makes you some kind of bastard in my opinion. What a completely unnecessary, irrelevant and downright nasty comment that is. I hope the reason you haven't returned to this post is because you are utterly ashamed of yourself.

I take your point Buttermilly and that's the reason such a procedure would probably not be implemented. Part of me however thinks that perhaps they should think about that before they post such offensive stuff in the first place. Their own behaviour causes the banning.

This is a prime example of cowardly abuse of the name changing facility.
Their banning is or should be automatic. I know TSSDNCOP but I for one would like them to be exposed so the scale of their cowardice and duplicity was obvious and it was a deterrent to others.

And fiveacres while I appreciate your point too the return of PBP s is common.

I've enjoyed the anonymity of a name change a few times for personal problems I wanted to discuss, but I vow as from today never to name change again as it seems to give people impunity into a special type of 'brave' twat

I think it depends what their intention was, which I'm guessing was dressing up as a character from a film. If this was the case then yes I think yabu and looking to be offended

I feel sorry for Michael.

yanbu the film is based on a true story.

Name changing to be a cunt to another poster is like the very definition of cowardice.

You are a fucking weasel OP - whoever you actually are.

Shithead.

Exactly, Pagwatch

However this was discussed very recently and people who expressed the view you and I have were roundly criticised as I remember.

Pag. I love you. That is all.

What Pag said.

I had someone on a NC have a pop at me not long ago. All her posts were deleted. She wasn't banned though.

Maybe it depends who you are? No fucker stuck up for me either

You should have to tick a box when you sign up saying you agree to have all your previous names exposed if you turn feral and start name changing to attack posters.

We could have a name and shame section called PSPGtS - Previously Sensible Posters Gone to Shit.

The irony of someone on an Internet forum complaining about people on Twitter then slagging off others for being too invested about the Internet is quite staggering.

I'd have agreed with the OP as well. I think that was in bad taste.

Oh wait you can't because your partner left you. Can really see why. OMFG!!! And you are complaining about someone calling you a fucking noodle? You got off lightly! How dare you bring another poster's personal life into this, just to make yourself feel better? You are not better than the people you are complaining about !

On another note I will be hiding this thread now I don't have to read your absolute shit anymore. Coward. YOu now you are going to get pulled to shit for the above remark, so you are skulking off...wow! You got balls!

Your whole life is MN. At 24 years old. How pathetic. YOU are pathetic. You complain on here about a different site & have the audacity to rip into someone who doesn't agree with you!

AIBU to find THIS so fucking offensive???

Usual

I'm sorry I missed that. I would have stuck up for you.

I've always defended you

What an absolute cunt of an OP.

It's ok Tethers. I'm not bitter

When those wistful threads are started where people wonder where posters of yesteryear have gone I often wonder whether any of them have been banned for abusive posts under a name change.

However as I said PBP s seem to always be with us. Dealing with them must be like whack a mole.

I'll have to stick up for you anyway, just to make up for it. Even when nobody's attacking you.

LEAVE USUAL ALONE!

WHAT WOULD YOU KNOW?!

ETC!

I'd have stuck up for you too usual

You did for me.
